We now have a feedback form online for every talk. You can help us when you give your opinion on all talk you visited at 22C3. It only takes you a few seconds to fill it out but it will be very, very helpful for us when we plan the next congress. For example, here’s the feedback page for “Private Investigations — Opening Show and Keynote Speech“. You can find feedback pages for all talks and events in the Fahrplan.
Also on the topic of being helpful: We need a printer for the infodesk (two printers would be even better). We need network laser printers with PostScript. If you are at the …
The Blinkenarea project TroiCade is working. The huge pixel matrix (3,50 x 4,50m) in the window shows the outside world that unusual things are happening inside the bcc.

For more information and technical details visit the Blinkenarea in Art & Beauty.

This year we will provide possibilities for doing workshops in a more open way: They are located in the workshop area in the hackcenter – no more in a conference room. You can easily submit your demonstration, discussion or brainstorming on the workshop area page at the 22C3 Wiki. There are still up to 25 hours left – especially on the first and last day.
The workshop area offers a good opportunity for getting deeper into topics, which were mentioned in a Lightning Talk – presumed that the lighting-talker has reserved a hour or two in the workshop area.

And the Erisian Dwarfs have already started to set up life support.
The cool people of Zone-H that will give a lecture named “Corp vs. Corp” have a second identity named Hero-Z that produces cool comics and now they have released their forth episode dedicated to 22C3.
The title matches the 22C3 motto: “Private Investigations“. You can download the full comic as one huge PDF file.
The comic series’ super-heroine Evil Angelica also did a darkish, electronic “theme song” for the comic. Get this in MP3.
They will distribute a limited set of CDs with the PDF and theme …
This time, there will be a small hardware shop on location at 22C3 (in front of lecture room 2). If you need things like DVDs, CDs, hard disks and such they might be able to help. At Alexanderplatz you also find the “Saturn” electronic supermarket that might provide less specialized stuff (phones, cables, whatever).
Brenno de Winter is an IT journalist and activist from the Netherlands. Moreover, he is a brillant speaker whose lectures are both entertaining and informative. So don’t miss his lecture on Cryptography which has already been mentioned on this blog.
Perhaps even more important will be his contribution on the topic of data retention, which has unfortunately become a top issue in current European politics. Where most activists just lament over the mayhem of civil rights and liberties, Brenno’s lecture on Hacking Data Retention – How bureaucrats fail to fight terror shows the hacker approach to …
